I must say that I have had very little success when it comes to closing the deal on a nice mule deer or even elk in recent years. Not for a lack of trying. I did pass up small deer every day on the muzzle loader hunt last year. Couldn't bring myself to shoot the only 2 points left in SE utah. So to you guys that have posted with your pointers, thanks. Hopefully I can turn things around in 2011!!! If not I will still have a damn good time trying!!!!!!!

Stick with it Matt - it will come. And once it does it will all become clear to you. Success is the merging of hard work and a little luck. You put in the time and hard work and the rest will fall in place. Just don't give up!

I would have to say my impatience is the biggest obstacle to being successful. I have to fight the urge to pack up and move after about thirty minutes of glassing every time. So, I'm learning patience is huge.
